How Bathtub Overflow Cleanup Works in Evangeline

Porous trim can wick an overflow above the original puddle. The crew checks the full wet height and dries or removes material based on condition.

1. Remove accessible bathroom water

   The crew chooses recovery equipment based on water depth and access. It checks seams and trim after the floor looks clear.

2. Locate moisture beyond the puddle

   Thermal patterns may point toward a damp area, and a moisture meter confirms it. The technician documents materials needing attention.

3. Open trapped wet materials when needed

4. Dry, monitor and verify

   The Evangeline team verifies the subfloor and lower ceiling before equipment removal. Rebuilding follows the completed dry-out.
